Fresh sod delivered to 76092 — check prices and order online.

St. Augustine, Bermuda, and Zoysia — all cut fresh and delivered direct to your property. Check prices online, pick your delivery date, and skip the back-and-forth. If you’d rather talk it through first, we’re a phone call away.

Southlake sits in the sweet spot between Dallas and Fort Worth — close to DFW Airport, minutes from Grapevine Lake, and home to one of the nicest town squares in the metroplex. Carroll ISD’s reputation brings families here, and those families tend to stick around. That means a lot of established homes with mature landscaping sitting alongside newer construction in communities like Carillon, Timarron, and Clariden Ranch.

If you’ve spent any time digging in a Southlake yard, you’ve probably noticed the soil can vary. The hillier sections near Southlake Boulevard sit on a shallow limestone shelf, while lower-lying areas have the heavy clay typical of North Texas. That matters when you’re choosing grass and planning how to water it.

Whether you’re refreshing an older lawn in Timber Lake, putting in sod on a new build in Carillon, or anywhere along the White Chapel corridor — timing your project right makes a difference. Our guide to the best time to install sod in DFW breaks down what to expect season by season.

Which Grass Fits Your Southlake Yard?

There’s no single best grass — it depends on your sun exposure, how your family uses the space, and how much time you want to spend on maintenance. The chart below gives you a quick read on how each variety handles Southlake conditions.

Southlake Grass Lawn Benefits

Farm-Fresh Sod Delivered to Southlake

Here’s what most people don’t realize: sod has a shelf life. Once it’s cut, it starts burning through the moisture and energy stored in its roots just to stay alive. In cooler weather it holds on longer, but during a North Texas summer, heat accelerates everything. Even an extra day sitting on a pallet can make a real difference in how well it establishes.

We harvest your sod the day before delivery and bring it straight to your property — it arrives with the strength it needs to root quickly. Some sod suppliers stock their lot for walk-in customers, knowing that if it doesn’t sell they can shuffle it out on deliveries the next day. That cycle keeps older grass moving, but it means your delivery might show up with sod that was cut two or three days ago. We skip that system entirely. Your sod is harvested for your order, not pulled from pallets that have been sitting around. It shows up ready to grow, not already fighting to recover.

Grass Types That Work in Southlake

Your front yard might need something different than your backyard. Sun exposure changes, kids and dogs wear paths in the turf, and some people want a lawn they can mostly ignore while others enjoy the maintenance routine. Here’s how to think through your options.

St. Augustine Sod for Southlake

Southlake’s mature neighborhoods — places like Timber Lake, Kirkwood Hollow, and the established areas near Bob Jones Nature Center — often have big trees casting serious shade. St. Augustine handles that better than Bermuda or most Zoysias, giving you that classic thick-bladed Texas lawn look even where sunlight is limited.

Raleigh St Augustine Grass

Raleigh St. Augustine – Southlake, TX

Raleigh St. Augustine has been the standard in North Texas for years. It establishes reliably, handles 4-6 hours of filtered sun, and costs less than the upgraded varieties. Nothing fancy — it just works.

Palmetto St. Augustin Grass

Palmetto St. Augustine – Southlake, TX

Palmetto St. Augustine takes shade tolerance a step further and has finer blade texture. It also handles cold snaps better, which matters when those January freezes roll through. If your yard is heavily shaded or you want a more refined appearance, Palmetto’s worth the upgrade.

Bermuda Sod for Southlake

Full sun and an active family? Bermuda was made for that combination. It thrives in direct light, repairs itself quickly when it gets beat up, and stays thick under heavy foot traffic. The newer developments with open lots — and plenty of backyards that double as sports fields — are prime Bermuda territory.

TifTuf Bermuda Grass

TifTuf Bermuda – Southlake, TX

TifTuf Bermuda uses about 38% less water than traditional Bermuda while staying green through summer heat. Given Southlake’s twice-weekly watering restrictions, TifTuf’s drought tolerance makes a real difference when July and August hit hard.

Celebration Bermuda Grass

Celebration Bermuda – Southlake, TX

Celebration Bermuda has a distinctive blue-green color and recovers from wear faster than most. It handles Southlake’s clay soil well and holds up to the kind of use that comes with kids, dogs, and weekend gatherings.

Tifway 419 Bermuda Grass

Tifway 419 Bermuda – Southlake, TX

Tifway 419 Bermuda is the sports-field standard — dense, tight, and sharp-looking when properly maintained. It’s more demanding than TifTuf or Celebration, but if you want that crisp, manicured appearance and have full sun to support it, 419 delivers.

Zoysia Sod for Southlake

Zoysia hits a middle ground that appeals to a lot of Southlake homeowners — better shade tolerance than Bermuda, less mowing than St. Augustine, and a dense carpet that feels good underfoot. The slower growth means less time behind a mower, which plenty of people appreciate.

Palisades Zoysia Grass

Palisades Zoysia – Southlake, TX

Palisades Zoysia adapts to more conditions than any Zoysia we carry. Heat, partial shade, clay soil, foot traffic — it handles the range. If you’re not sure which direction to go, Palisades is a reliable choice for most Southlake properties.

Zeon Zoysia Grass

Zeon Zoysia – Southlake, TX

Zeon Zoysia has the softest texture of the bunch — the “Barefoot Grass.” It’s also the most shade-tolerant grass we sell, outperforming even St. Augustine in low light. If Zeon won’t work, nothing will.

Stadium Zoysia Grass

Stadium Zoysia – Southlake, TX

Stadium Zoysia brings dark green color and handles heavy traffic well. If you want Zoysia’s low-maintenance benefits but your backyard sees a lot of action, Stadium can take it.

Emerald Zoysia Grass 2

Emerald Zoysia – Southlake, TX

Emerald Zoysia grows slowly and stays dense — popular for front yards where curb appeal is the priority. The HOA-conscious neighborhoods in Southlake see a lot of Emerald installations.

Cavalier Zoysia Grass

Cavalier Zoysia – Southlake, TX

Cavalier Zoysia handles North Texas winters better than other Zoysias. It holds color longer in fall and greens up earlier in spring, giving you a few extra weeks on each end of the season.

Southlake Watering Rules for New Sod

The City of Southlake follows a year-round twice-per-week watering schedule. It’s not just a suggestion — it’s city ordinance, and code enforcement does issue warnings and fines. Understanding the rules before your sod arrives makes the whole process smoother.

Quick note: we sell grass, not water policy. The information below is based on our research of Southlake’s current regulations, but confirm with the city before your project. Rules can change.

Standard Watering Schedule

Southlake limits automatic irrigation to twice per week, year-round. Even-numbered addresses water on Wednesdays and Saturdays; odd-numbered addresses water on Thursdays and Sundays. Automatic sprinklers can only run between 6:00 PM and 10:00 AM — no daytime irrigation.

Hand-watering with a hose is allowed anytime, any day. The city’s FAQ confirms this applies to new sod: “You can water landscaping, potted plants, sod, or grass by hand via hose and nozzle at any time on any day.” (City of Southlake)

New Sod Watering Exemption

Here’s what most people don’t know: Southlake offers a New Turf Watering Exemption for newly installed sod. You’ll need to apply for it — there’s a form on the city’s Public Works website — but once approved, you get additional watering flexibility during the critical establishment period.

Before your delivery date, visit the City of Southlake’s Public Works Forms page and submit the Landscape Material Watering Exemption Request. It’s a simple process, and having it in place before your sod arrives prevents any issues with code enforcement while you’re getting your new lawn established.

Drought Restrictions

Southlake gets its water through the City of Fort Worth, which sources from Tarrant Regional Water District. During drought conditions, stricter restrictions may kick in based on regional supply. The city’s Water Smart Outside page has current status and conservation tips.

Free Irrigation Evaluations & Rebates

Here’s something worth knowing before you install: Southlake offers free sprinkler system evaluations through the W.I.S.E. Guys program (that’s Water Irrigation System Evaluation). They’ll check your system’s efficiency and help you dial in runtimes for your specific soil and grass type. The city also offers rebates up to $200 on smart irrigation controllers — worth checking before you spend money on new sod only to overwater or underwater it with old equipment.

Before Your Sod Arrives

Two things to handle: apply for the watering exemption, and confirm the current restriction stage. A quick call to Southlake Water Utilities at (817) 748-8051 can answer any questions about what’s allowed for your specific situation.

Where We Deliver in Southlake

We cover all of Southlake and the surrounding area. Whether you’re near Southlake Town Square, out by Grapevine Lake, or in one of the neighborhoods along White Chapel Boulevard, we can get fresh sod to your property. For our full DFW coverage, see our sod delivery page.

Timarron Sod Delivery

Best for: Drought-tolerant Bermuda and premium Zoysia

One of Southlake’s premier neighborhoods, built around the Timarron Country Club golf course. A mix of homes from the 1990s through early 2000s on lots ranging from .15 to 1 acre. TifTuf Bermuda and Palisades Zoysia are popular here — both hold up to Timarron’s strict HOA standards and the full sun exposure typical of properties along the fairways.

Carillon Sod Delivery

Best for: High-end Zoysia installations

Master-planned community in northwest Southlake with lakes, walking trails, and newer construction. Lot sizes typically .15 to .35 acres with luxury standards throughout. Palisades Zoysia is the most popular choice here — that dense, manicured look fits the neighborhood’s curb appeal expectations perfectly.

Clariden Ranch Sod Delivery

Best for: High-end Zoysia installations

Private, gated community with larger lots and custom homes. The landscaping standards match the neighborhood’s exclusivity — Palisades and Emerald Zoysia are popular for the dense, refined look they provide. We deliver a full range of varieties depending on individual property conditions; shade tolerance matters more in some sections than others.

Timber Lake & Kirkwood Hollow Sod Delivery

Best for: Shade-tolerant St. Augustine and Zoysia

Established Southlake neighborhoods with larger lots, mature oak canopies, and a more private residential feel. The significant tree cover here means shade tolerance is essential — Palmetto St. Augustine and Zeon Zoysia are the go-to options for most properties. Both handle the filtered light under those mature trees far better than Bermuda would.

Southlake Town Square Area

Residential areas near the town center see a mix of conditions. Properties closer to the commercial district tend to be newer with more open sun exposure, while the surrounding established neighborhoods have more tree cover. We deliver throughout this area regularly.

Benbrook Soil Conditions & Lawn Prep

If you’ve ever tried digging in a Benbrook yard after a dry spell, you’ve met the clay. North Texas clay is notorious — it swells when wet, shrinks and cracks when dry, and gives foundation repair companies plenty of business. It also affects how your lawn performs.

Near the lake, there’s another factor: Benbrook soil tends to run alkaline due to limestone in the area. Most grass varieties handle this fine, but if you’re planting Zoysia or noticing slow establishment, a quick soil test can tell you if pH is working against you. It’s an easy fix with the right amendments — just good to know before you start.

One more thing to watch: Benbrook is open near the lake, and the wind can dry out new sod faster than in more sheltered parts of Fort Worth. Keep an eye on your edges — they’ll be the first to brown if the wind is kicking up off the water. A little extra attention during the first couple weeks makes a difference.

The good news: all the grass varieties we sell handle clay soil. The key is proper soil prep before installation — loosening the top few inches and adding organic matter if needed — plus consistent watering once the sod is down. Clay holds moisture longer than sandy soil, so you can sometimes water less frequently. But when you do water, you need to soak it properly so moisture actually penetrates instead of running off the surface.

Watering Clay Soil the Right Way

If your property sits on clay rather than the limestone shelf, you’ll need to adjust your watering approach. Clay absorbs water slowly and holds it longer, which sounds like an advantage until you realize runoff is the real problem.

Cycle-and-soak watering works better than one long irrigation run. Shorter cycles let water absorb instead of pooling on the surface or running into the street. Your soil prep matters too: if you’re starting from scratch, tilling in some compost before laying sod helps with drainage and gives roots an easier start.

Creek Lots & Waterfront Properties

Southlake has some beautiful creek-adjacent lots along Big Bear Creek, Dove Creek, and properties closer to Grapevine Lake. These spots come with their own lawn challenges: higher humidity, slower drainage, and soil that stays damp longer than the rest of the neighborhood.

That extra moisture creates conditions where fungal issues can take hold — especially in hot, humid summers. If you’re on one of these lots, Palmetto St. Augustine is worth a close look. It handles humidity and has better fungal resistance than standard varieties, which matters when your yard doesn’t dry out as fast as everyone else’s.

For creek lots that also get decent shade from the tree canopy, Zeon Zoysia is another strong option — it tolerates both shade and the occasional wet feet better than Bermuda.

Aiming for Yard of the Month?

Southlake HOAs don’t hand out those signs for “good enough.” If you’re in Timarron, Carillon, Clariden Ranch, or any of the neighborhoods with active yard competitions, your grass choice is just the starting point.

For that manicured, fairway-style look HOA judges love, Palisades Zoysia is the most popular choice we see in Southlake. It’s dense, holds clean edges, and has that refined texture that photographs well from the street. Emerald Zoysia works too if you want darker green color and don’t mind slower establishment.

Beyond the grass itself: edging matters as much as the turf. Clean borders along beds, sidewalks, and driveways make a bigger visual impact than most people realize. And density comes from proper watering and fertilization after install — not just from picking the right variety.

How to Order Sod for Southlake

We’ve made this straightforward. Check prices, figure out quantities, pick a delivery date — everything happens online if that’s what you prefer. But if you’d rather talk through your situation with someone who knows grass, we’re here for that too.

Step 1: Measure your space. Our online calculator converts your measurements into pallets. Each pallet covers roughly 450 square feet.

Step 2: See prices and order. The pricing page shows current rates for everything we carry. Pick your grass, choose a delivery date, and you’re set.

Step 3: We handle the rest. Your sod gets harvested the day before delivery and arrives fresh at your Southlake property.

If you’re installing during summer or drought conditions, get that watering exemption from the city before your delivery date. Having it in place keeps everything on track.

Frequently Asked Questions About Sod in Southlake, TX

Sod delivered to Southlake, TX (76092) costs between $270 and $350 per pallet, depending on the grass variety. Standard Bermuda grasses average $270–$275, while premium varieties like Zoysia range from $330–$350 per pallet. Each pallet covers approximately 450 square feet.

Because of Southlake’s high HOA standards in neighborhoods like Timarron and Carillon, most homeowners opt for Palisades Zoysia, which falls in the $330–$350 range. If you are re-sodding a large, sunny estate, TifTuf Bermuda is a high-performance choice at $270–$275. Most local yards require 4–15 pallets. You can see exact pricing and calculate your needs on our sod prices page—just enter your zip code and dimensions.

Related Question: Is Zoysia more expensive than Bermuda in North Texas? Yes, Zoysia is typically $50–$80 more per pallet than Bermuda because it has a slower growth cycle at the farm, but its luxury texture and shade tolerance make it the preferred choice for Southlake curb appeal.

The best grass for Southlake depends on your shade levels and soil depth. TifTuf Bermuda is the best for full-sun yards, Palmetto St. Augustine is ideal for heavy shade near mature oaks, and Palisades Zoysia is the top all-around choice for luxury HOA compliance and drought resistance.

Southlake properties often sit on a limestone shelf with thin topsoil. Every variety we sell is selected to thrive in this environment. For established neighborhoods like Timber Lake or Kirkwood Hollow where mature trees create deep shade, we recommend St. Augustine. For newer construction with full exposure, Bermuda is the standard. For a detailed breakdown, see our Zoysia grass guide.

Related Question: Will grass grow over limestone rock? Yes, but you need at least 4-6 inches of screened topsoil. Drought-tolerant varieties like TifTuf or Palisades are best for shallow-soil areas because they are engineered to survive with less water.

Southlake allows automatic irrigation twice per week: Even-numbered addresses water Wednesdays and Saturdays; Odd-numbered addresses water Thursdays and Sundays. Sprinklers may only run between 6:00 PM and 10:00 AM. Hand-watering with a hose and nozzle is permitted at any time, on any day.

To establish new sod, you should apply for the Southlake New Turf Watering Exemption via the Public Works website. This grants you a 30-day window to water daily. Additionally, Southlake offers a $200 W.I.S.E. Guys rebate for smart irrigation upgrades. For exemption details or to check your schedule, contact Southlake Water Utilities at (817) 748-8051.

Related Question: Can I water new sod every day in Southlake? Only if you have an approved 30-day exemption or if you are watering by hand. Without an exemption, you must stick to your designated two days per week.

The ideal time to install sod in Southlake is during the Spring (March–May) and Fall (September–November) to take advantage of moderate temperatures. However, because of North Texas’s climate, sod can be successfully installed year-round, including winter dormancy.

Spring and fall allow for the fastest root establishment. Summer installations are common but require strict adherence to a watering schedule (and a city exemption). Bermuda and Zoysia can even be installed in the winter; though the grass is brown/dormant, the roots will begin to “tack” into the soil as soon as temperatures rise above 55°F. Check our installation timing guide for more details.

Related Question: How long does it take for sod to root in Texas? In warm weather, you’ll see shallow roots in 10-14 days. You can test this by gently tugging on a corner of the sod; if you feel resistance, it’s rooting!

Yes, we provide fresh-cut sod delivery to all 76092 addresses, including neighborhoods like Clariden Ranch, Monticello, and those surrounding Southlake Town Square. We also serve neighboring Westlake, Colleyville, and Grapevine.

We harvest our grass the day before delivery to ensure it arrives healthy. Whether you are doing a small patch job or a full-acre estate renovation, our trucks are in the Southlake area daily. Simply enter your address at checkout to see the next available delivery date for your neighborhood.

Related Question: Do I need to be home for my sod delivery? No. Most Southlake deliveries are “drop and go.” Just let us know where you want the pallets placed (usually the driveway or curb), and our drivers will handle the rest.
